Faster than planned: The server migration was completed in less than 20 hours

The planned JDS Management server migration has been successfully completed! 🎉

After the platform was taken fully offline on Friday, August 7, 2026, at around 6:30 PM, the migration was successfully completed on Saturday morning.

The entire server migration was therefore completed in less than 20 hours – significantly faster than the originally planned maintenance window until Monday morning.

All JDS Management apps are working again and JDS Management is fully accessible.


⚠️ Temporary longer loading times may occur

Following the successful migration, some users may temporarily experience longer loading times.

This is mainly caused by empty or newly rebuilt caches. Certain data needs to be loaded and cached again after the server migration.

This should improve automatically as the platform is used.

Longer loading times do not mean that the migration failed or that the platform is unavailable.
